TAB A
CREED OF THE NONCOMMISSIONED OFFICER
No one is more professional than I.
I am a Noncommissioned
Officer, a leader of soldiers. As a Noncommissioned Officer, I
realize that I am a member of a time-honored corps, which is
known as “The Backbone of the Army”.
I am proud of the corps of Noncommissioned Officers and at all
times will conduct myself so as to bring credit upon the Corps, the
Military Service, and my Country. Regardless of the situation
which I find myself, I will not use my grade or position to attain
pleasure, profit, or personal safety.
Competence is my watch word.
My two basic responsibilities will
always be in the upper most of my mind--accomplishment of my
mission and the welfare of my soldiers. I will strive to remain
tactically and technically proficient. I am aware of my role as a
Noncommissioned Officer. I will fulfill my responsibilities
inherent in that role. All soldiers are entitled to outstanding
leadership; I will provide that leadership. I know my soldiers and
will always place their needs above my own. I will communicate
consistently with my soldiers and never leave them uninformed. I
will be fair and impartial when recommending both rewards and
punishment.
Officers of my command will have maximum time to accomplish
their missions; they will not have to accomplish mine. I will earn
their respect as well as that of my soldiers. I will be loyal to those
whom I serve; seniors, peers, and subordinates alike. I will
exercise initiative by taking appropriate actions in the absence of
orders. I will not compromise my integrity, nor my moral courage.
I will not forget, nor will I let my comrades forget that we are
professionals, Noncommissioned Officers, leaders!
TAB B
CODE OF CONDUCT
I
I am an American, fighting in the forces which guard my country and our way of
life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.
II
I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender
the members of my command while they still have the means to resist.
III
If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every
effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special
favors from the enemy.
IV
If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give
no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades.
If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those
appointed over me and will back them up in every way.
V
When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am requires to give name,
rank, service number and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions
to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to
my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.
VI
I will never forget that I am an American, fighting for freedom, responsible for my
actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in
my God and in the United States of America.
